BANANA CHIPS

Banana Chips are available in plenty in bakeries all over.  But the taste of the home made chips is awesome.   Home made chips are  fresh,  crispy and nourishing,  as we can use the oil of our choice to fry  the chips.  With little effort,  these  can be prepared at home, preferably with a helping hand.  

TO PREPARE BANANA CHIPS:

Ingredients:

• 8 fresh green raw Nandarkai bananas
• 1 litre cooking oil 
• 1 tbspn turmeric powder dissolved in water
• A metal chips slicer

Method:

• Peel the skin of the raw banana by slitting the skin lengthwise, without touching the pulp
• Soak these peeled bananas in turmeric  water in an utensil for a while
• Remove the bananas and pat dry using a dry cloth or tissue paper

• Heat the oil in a deep frying pan, bring it to a boil
• Hold the slicer above the hot oil and slice the bananas, dropping directly into the hot oil
• To avoid lumps, keep stirring.
• Add a tspn of salt water into the hot oil
• Fry until crispy
• Transfer the fried chips onto a plate covered with tissue paper
• Allow to cool. 
• Store the chips in an air tight container.
